Scientific Detectors integrated in Spectroscopic and Imaging Spectrometer Systems:
The Synapse scientific camera is available in CCD or InGaAs detector configurations to cover a wide range of spectroscopy applications. This spectroscopy detector provides the highest level of sensitivity and high dynamic range required to fulfill the most demanding spectroscopic experiments. The unique technology of the multichannel detector provides unreached signal linearity and lowest dark noise level. Available in a wide variety of CCD and InGaAS chips, the Synapse is the most cost-effective scientific camera solution on the market to perform your traditional and challenging spectroscopy work such as plasma emission, molecular absorption, fluorescence, Raman, and Photoluminescence. |
The Symphony deep cooled detector is available in CCD or InGaAs liquid nitrogen configurations and is ideally suited to detect low light level that no thermoelectrically cooled detector can measure. Our latest Symphony IGA-HP uses a unique technology that offers 3 to 5 fold increase in signal sensitivity compared to available IGAs. It the most sensitive IGA camera on the market for ultra low light measurements above 1 micron. The use of nitrogen cooling results in extremely low dark signal levels that permit longer integration times necessary in very low light applications such as Raman, Fluorescence, Photoluminescence and Absorption. |
The Synapse-i scientific CCD imaging camera is the most sensitive quantitative low light imaging camera on the market. Unlike EMCCDs or ICCDs, which are not quantitative, the Synapse-i scientific imaging camera provides real image quantification critical for imaging of labeled cells, plants and in-vivo imaging. Thanks to its unique quick-change mounting flange, the Synapse-i imaging camera can easily be converted from imaging to spectroscopic mode. The deep thermoelectric cooling provides low dark signal operation with excellent linearity. The 16-bit resolution makes the Synapse-i the ideal low light imaging camera for chemiluminescence, plant genetics, photovoltaic inspection, combustion and flow analysis. |
Our broad selection of front illuminated and back-thinned OEM CCD solutions and Linear diode arrays come with various series of HORIBA Scientific proprietary electronics options, for integration into OEM spectrometers. The LineScan series is a very affordable family of electronics for linear detectors (Linear Sony® and S390X series PDAs). The Compact series provides 1D and 2D capability and various gain options, as well as on-board data processing. From the low cost Sony® 511 CCD to the 1-stage TE cooled S7031, we have a solution for each spectroscopic industrial application, as well as for low noise imaging requirements. Our OEM division is focused on industrial quantities from 100s to 1000s and provides opto-mechanical and electronics customization capabilities. |
